dc.description.abstract	The problem of automatic acquisition of lexical-semantic relations for Afrikaans nouns from a dictionary is addressed. The acquisition process is improved over previous approaches by implementing both typographic constraints in patterns, and by automating the acquisition of syntactic patterns. Results for the noun taxonomy relation IS-A and semantic feature IS-HUMAN show that ambiguity can successfully be resolved with the patterns obtained.	en
